Heart failure, also known as congestive heart failure occurs when the heart muscle is unable to pump enough blood to meet the body’s blood and oxygen demands. When this occurs, blood frequently backs up and fluid can accumulate in the lungs, causing shortness of breath. The cardiac team at Medicare Pharmacy is well known for complex coronary bypass, total arterial bypass, LIMA RIMA Y grafting, off-pump, and excellence in mitral valve repair and Bentall. We offer heart failure treatment in Kitchener.
Symptoms of Heart Failure:
Shortness of breath during physical activity or when lying down
- Weakness and fatigue

- A fast or irregular heartbeat
- Exercise capacity has been reduced.
What is Heart failure?
The heart is a muscular valve that pumps blood to various regions of the body. Heart failure occurs when the heart’s pump gets weak and the heart is unable to pump the amount of blood that the body requires.
What is the way to deal with heart failure?
The first step is to look for any causes of heart failure that can be reversed. Heart failure will improve on its own if the underlying cause is addressed. For example, if heart failure is caused by blockages in cardiac vessels, the heart receives less blood, causing the heart muscle to weaken. We can improve heart function and treat heart failure by treating blockages with coronary angioplasty / CABG.
